ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for trimming the ends of edible elongate roots, such as carrots, comprises a carrousel with upstanding upright partitions along which the centrally deposited roots move under centrifugal force into a set of ascending radial guide channels, coming to rest with their leading ends against a first peripheral barrier. Upon reaching a gap in that barrier, the roots approach a stationary first blade which cuts off their leading ends. Having passed the blade, the roots are centrifugally propelled into a set of steeply descending guide channels which they enter with their uncut ends facing down, coming to rest against a second peripheral barrier until they reach a gap at which a stationary second blade cuts off these latter ends.
